"Spot Reduction" Can You Really Target Fat Reduction


As a weight loss and fitness coach I am often

FAT around my [???????]

Note: You fill in the [???????] eg abdomen, hips, thighs,
butt, upper arms etc.

“If I could wave a magic wand to make 'spot reduction' of

abdominal crunches
have melted the fat from their abdomen? No they haven't.
Impossible - Period!

What has happened in this example is that in addition to
the 'abdominal crunches, this person has either done
'aerobic' exercise eg walking, running, rowing, or they
have made changes to their dietary program or in all
likelihood they have done both.

As a result fat has been burnt from around their body in
general and that has included from around their abdomen".

in summary, they have great looking Abs because of a
combination of aerobic exercise, changes to their dietary
habits and lots of abdominal crunches. Sorry but there is
